I First saw some in the black dragon auto catolog for Z's. It is an inteior paint that is supposed to restore the color of the plastic and vinyl sufaces of your interior.

sounds cheap and effective. I've got alot of fading in my 280zx's red interior and was wondering if this was a good idea

Most parts stores sell vinyl / carpet spraypaint... and it's a lot cheaper than $12 a can. Tho apparently BDA has the color matching paint, so you don't have to guess.

Colorbond sells locally for 9 and change. Just got through with the interior of mine. The dash cap from Motorsports actually had the colorbond numbers on it. I am told by a factory rep that it even works on serpentine belts if the belts are prepped right. It was far superior to the paint I had the shop mix up for the other vinyl.

how much did the dash cap cost you? BDA has the full dash covers for about 100$

The dash cap was $84.95 plus shipping from Motorsport, should cost less in shipping for you! The paint was bought from Southern Auto Paint in Griffin, Ga. This is a small paint and supply store that sells to the local body shop trade. I'm sure most towns have the same sort of store, walk-ins are usually welcome at these and if your buying paint they don't mind sharing expertise on how to best apply.
